Specialty insurtech company Concirrus has officially launched Concirrus Inspire, an AI-native underwriting platform designed to help specialty insurers and managing general agents accelerate processes while retaining control over underwriting preferences, risk exposures and portfolio outcomes.
Inspire covers the entire underwriting lifecycle from submission to binding, enabling underwriters to make confident decisions and support business growth without scaling up staff.
Inspire is designed for the complexity of specialty insurance, combining product line-specific underwriting applications with a product line-agnostic policy administration foundation.
This modular approach allows companies to deploy functionality where needed while maintaining consistency across the enterprise. The platform reflects the way underwriters work across different lines of business, adapting to the nuances and changes inherent in specialty risks.
As specialty insurance companies expand, it becomes increasingly important to maintain operational clarity while increasing underwriting volume. Inspire addresses this challenge by embedding artificial intelligence and automation throughout the underwriting workflow. From submission receipt to quote and binding, the platform reduces manual workload, streamlines operations, and allows underwriters to make timely, data-driven decisions aligned with the needs of the organization.
By providing a single, modular platform, Concirrus limits the need for complex integration projects or lengthy transformation initiatives, helping organizations modernize their underwriting processes while providing a foundation that can adapt as business needs evolve.
Inspire is built around strategic advantages to provide insurers, brokers and MGAs with a competitive edge. It enables underwriters to move from submissions to confident, data-backed decisions in minutes rather than days, seizing opportunities without compromising discipline. It provides real-time visibility into risk exposure and accumulation, supporting growth while ensuring risks remain within acceptable limits.
AI acts as a force multiplier, allowing specialist underwriters to focus on complex, high-value risks while the platform manages high-volume processing. The platform’s architecture is designed for the future, allowing companies to safely scale without having to lock in a vendor or repeatedly re-architect the platform.
Concirrus Inspire is delivered as a set of interoperable modules that can be phased in within a unified underwriting framework. Modules cover submission intake, classification, quoting, risk management, data extraction, policy management, ratings, insights, portfolio oversight, adaptive workflows and sanctions screening. Through partnerships like Diesta, Inspire also goes beyond coverage to provide automated premium payment and reconciliation services, providing seamless continuity from risk exposure to cash receipts.
Andrew Yeoman, CEO of Concirrus, commented: “The specialty insurance market is evolving rapidly and underwriting teams need technology that supports speed and discipline. Inspire is not an incremental upgrade. It is an AI-native underwriting platform designed to remove friction, support better decision-making and give insurers the confidence to scale.”
Concirrus continues to expand its AI-first platform, supported by leadership growth and strong momentum in the UK and US markets. A notable achievement is becoming the first global insurtech company to achieve triple certification for AI governance ISO/IEC 42001, information security ISO/IEC 27001 and SOC 2 compliance, ensuring Inspire delivers speed and accuracy while meeting the highest standards of security, data protection and ethical use of AI.
As insurance companies embrace new technologies, Concirrus Inspire provides a clear, AI-native foundation that enables companies to modernize underwriting, operate with confidence and scale without losing control.
